A step towards something more like how I imagine the future public API
for tvix-eval. Please note that this is definitely not the final
version yet, but it's better than the previous API that either exposed
a side-effecting blackbox, or a very low-level "interface".
The basic idea is that an evaluation of some Nix code is requested by
a caller with various parameters, but not all callers are interested
in all of these parameters.
There are also some bits of information that are returned from an
evaluation that are not necessarily relevant to all callers.
To support this somewhat ergonomically, the API is built around an
`Evaluation` struct that is configured by the caller with the various
parameters and then "executed".

Introduces granular dependency builds using crate2nix, bootstrapped
off the generated configuration from the newly introduced
workspace (see cl/7533).
This commit checks in the generated Cargo.nix file which can be
regenerated with a parameterless invocation of `crate2nix generate` in
`//tvix`. I tried generating this in IFD, but it turned out to be
harder than what seemed worthwhile for now.
In this setup, the various build targets for Rust projects end up
being attributes of the imported `Cargo.nix` file at the `tvix.crates`
attribute. These still lack configuration, however, which has been
fixed in the various `default.nix` files of individual projects.
Note that we (temporarily) lose the ability to build tvix-eval's
benchmarks in CI. I haven't figured out what magic incantation summons
them from the void again ...
The `eval-okay-readDir` tests from both test suites have been disabled
because they fail for unknown reasons when run in this new derivation.
Somebody will have to debug it!

This relates to the (abandoned) cl/7256.
Introduces a Cargo workspace at //tvix that is primarily intended to
be used as a workaround for the annoying Nix+Rust tooling while having
a consistent set of dependencies.
This is driven in part by a desire to adopt crate2nix and get more
granular Nix builds for Tvix's Rust projects, and in part by a need to
split //tvix/eval into something providing the CLI (REPL etc.), and a
library providing eval, without significantly altering the structure
of build targets.
To accomplish this the workspace has been designed to allow projects
to remain independent build targets. I want to avoid lumping all the
projects together - something like //tvix/eval should always be
independent of other parts of tvix.
A helper function in //tvix/default.nix lets downstream naersk
projects construct a sparse root for the project which combines the
workspace's `Cargo.lock` with the project's own `Cargo.toml`.
Note that cargo commands in the workspace itself require the build
dependencies of _all_ projects to be present, which is currently a bit
annoying to accomplish.
This introduces some breakage:
1. It breaks usage of rust-analyser without being in a shell with the
dependencies of *all* Tvix projects, as it is not capable of
respecting only the subset of dependencies for a part of the
workspace.
2. It is no longer possible to run tests using `cargo test`, as the
test generation crate we use does not work with workspaces:
https://github.com/frehberg/test-generator/issues/6
This still works in the Nix build as we construct a Cargo project
that looks like it's not in a workspace there. Until somebody fixes
that crate / writes a new macro / does something else with the test
suite, the way to run the tests is through the Nix build.
Long-term we'll probably want to get rid of cargo completely, it's
just a big wart and most tooling works without it if correctly
configured, but we don't have time for that now.

* A sanity check that "pointer equality for functions" means not

* To be pointer-equal, it is not enough for the upvalues to be
normal-form equal (i.e. `nix_eq()`-equal); the upvalues must be
*pointer*-equal. The second part of the test case checks for
this.

When we start unrecursivifying (sp?) things, Rust's borrow checker
is going to be a headache; its magic only works when you use the CPU
stack as your call stack.
Fixing the borrow checker issues usually involves adding lots of
`clone()`s. Right now `NixList` is the only variant of `Value` that
isn't cheap to clone() -- all the others are either a wrapper around
Rc or else are of bounded size.
Note that this requires dropping the `DerefMut for NixList` instance
and using `Vec<Value>` instead in those situations.

When comparing Nix values for equality, an issue can occur where
recursive values contain thunks to themselves which causes borrow
errors when forcing them for comparison later down the line.
To work around this we clone the values for now. There might be some
optimisations possible like checking for thunk equality directly and
short-circuiting on that (we have to check what Nix does).

This implementation closely follows the original implementation in

Note that this test does not yet enable the `notyetpassing` test for
builtins.genericClosure because (for as of yet unknown reasons) this
test compares against XML output (however, evaluating the test case
actually does work).
This takes us one step closer to nixpkgs eval.
